The trip is scheduled for June 17-19. It is not clear if he will travel to Yosemite or Carlsbad Caverns first, and which family members the president will travel with.

NM Political Report has embedded the Facebook video below.

“The National Parks service turns 100 in August but President Obama plans to celebrate early,” text on the video says at the beginning. “Next week he’s taking the First Family on a trip to Carlsbad Caverns and Yosemite National Park.”

The video goes on to show other trips Obama made to National Parks throughout the country in his two terms in office.

The video also mentions that he “conserved more land and water than any other president in history.”

The video then lists the areas he named national monuments, including the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument near Las Cruces.
